  1. Send a "here's how your items are shared" report to each user periodically

    One of the most common sources of security breaches is due to a user inadvertently sharing an item more broadly or for longer than they intended.

    A simple way to help limit those sorts of security breaches would be for Box to email every user a report periodically (configurable by the admin, but roughly monthly) that said "Here's how everything you own is shared with other people, and here's a link to the KB article that'll tell you how to fix it if it's not what you want", then showed a report of their folders, files, and shared links, with…

  2. The ability to name the title of a collection

    I have a number of folders that were invited by external users (grey folders) and those folders are typically named such as "shared folder" and it is often difficult to identify which organization I am invited by. So I would like to organize those folders by naming when collection.

  3. Read only access to Admin Console

    To allow the worker's council to read the settings the admins make in Box, we need a read-only admin role.

    This would allow the worker's council to control what the admin are doing, without giving them the ability to change those settings. We don't want to give non-admins admin privileges.

    This helps us being a) compliant with the WC and b) be transparent to our colleagues.

  4. Auto Expiration of Collaborations

    For automatic expirations of external collaborators:

    Add criteria to automatically remove an external collaborator after they have not accessed content for X amount of time instead of a fixed day amount. This way, after an external collaborator has not previewed a piece of content in X amount of days, they will be removed. Makes it less manual to extend external collaborators if the system is removing them for us because they are not accessing a folder.

  5. Box Drive Conflict Handling: Save Edits to Conflict Copies Instead of Overwriting

    Request to change the behavior when conflict happens on Box Drive. Since Box Edit is currently uploading to a conflict copy after conflict occur. This will likely make you a bit confusion.

    Current behavior:

    1. User A opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
    2. User B opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
    3. User B saves the file X via Box Drive. Upload the changes as version 2 to file X
    4. User A saves the file X via Box Drive. Conflict happened. Create a conflict copy like file X (email address).
    5. User A saves file…

  8. Automatically prohibit unsupported characters

    Box Drive and unsupported characters:

    It’s hard to find each folder or file that contains prohibited characters, so I’d like to have prohibited characters registered online automatically deleted or replaced
    so they will appear in Box drive.

  10. Alarm with due date in documents.

    It would be very nice you can set a revalidation date to some documents that need to be reviewed in selected period. For example , documents that need to be validated each year. It would be nice if we can flag a date in the document , and receive an alert advicing that the document need to be reviewed. This alarm can be used for everything (for example for deletion of document). Thanks!

  11. Level Up the Salesforce Integration & Increase Doc Visibility/Accessibility

    Our company uses the Salesforce-Box integration. We are made up of a set of advisor teams who should only be able to see their clients' files. This works in Salesforce, where all client documents are visible. However, our users were used to accessing client files in the "File Explorer" on their desktop (Finder in Mac), under the Salesforce folder in Box on the desktop. Client folders only show up here if the user has clicked through the client's folders/docs in Salesforce. It would be great if our teams could see all their client folders in the File Explorer without having…

    We would like users with Viewer permission to use DocuSign Integration but it currently does not work while Adobe Sign or other apps does. Please enable Integration with DocuSign (e.g. Send with DocuSign) for Viewer users.

  14. Open files from favorites

    I'd like to be able to open a file directly from the favorites. That way, I avoid a preview (and its access stats by the way). If the file is not locked then it is opened in my local app. That would be really helpful.

  15. Rethink how customer feedback is handled for support tickets

    I open A LOT of support tickets with Box as I'm the primary escalation point for support in my enterprise.

    After every Box support ticket is solved and closed by the Box tech, I get an automated "how did we do" survey email.

    I get that you guys want customer feedback but forcing it down customers' throats for EVERY ticket that is solved is not the right approach. They just become repetitive and get to the point of being annoying.

    I've found a solution to get around this annoyance by creating rules to scan for common subject line text and…

  16. Working with Procurement in Box may get easier!

    With the File Request function we are now able to request supplier to upload their proposal directly in Box without having to create accounts. But we need to make things more easier, if I have 50 suppliers, it´s very time consuming to click in each folder, generate the link, change the settings of each link to request at least "email".
    So, here is the idea:
    1. My account should have a Standard Settings for "File Request" settings that I should be able to choose.
    2. When selecting multiple Folders, we should be able to generate multiple links, with each folder…

  19. Large file preview support

    A 360 degree video is taken and processed for upload to Box with the ".360" extension
    The files could potentially be very large (up to or sometimes more than 5 GB)
    With the use of Box sharing features, the 360 degree videos to be viewed/previewed by others

  20. Pop Up/Alert for duplicate folder name

    Customer is interested in a pop up or alert when users enter a duplicate name for a folder. This could be specific alert to just admins but some sort of notification to prevent duplicative folder names.
